Create a VEEAMZIP from a backup

Post by Ultra_VM »

Hi all.

The requirement I have is to copy a VM from the licenced 9.6 VEEAM Backup to a test esx host with VEEAM Free Edition to power it up to verify that the full VM is operating OK.

We had CBT issue recently and I want to see that whats on the backups is OK before and after the change.

I dont want to restore to virtual lab or sandbox as the system is highly regulated and cant take any risks.

I looked at VEEAMZIP but I can only ZIP from the infrastructure and not from backup.

Any advice ????

Thanks

Hi David,

You can set up the backup copy job with a single VM, it will copy the most recent state of the VM from the source repository to the target host. Thanks!
